Israeli settler killed in West Bank shooting, suspect arrested
–
Neutral summary
On the morning of Sunday, September 20, a Palestinian gunman opened fire on an Israeli man who was at a water spring with his son near the Halamish (Nevé Tzouf) settlement close to Ramallah in the occupied West Bank. The wounded man was taken to hospital in critical condition but died of his injuries. The Israeli military launched a manhunt and soon arrested the suspected attacker; according to the army’s press service, he will be handed over for questioning to the police and the Shin Bet. Almost simultaneously, Israeli troops shot dead a Palestinian driver they said had tried to ram soldiers with his car. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the attack as a “deadly terrorist attack”. The incident came hours before the start of Yom Kippur. Over the weekend, the West Bank also saw settler attacks on Palestinians: an elderly man was beaten in the village of Burqa, and near Salfit two Palestinians were injured — one struck on the head with a stone, the other stabbed in the thigh. In addition, Israeli forces detained at least 27 Palestinians in the village of al-Mughayyir east of Ramallah, where, according to Wafa, soldiers searched homes and seized valuables. TASS reports that the military arrested the suspect in the killing of the Israeli, and NRK, citing AFP, also confirms the arrest. National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir demanded the death penalty for the detained Palestinian, according to El Comercio.
